I certainly have. In this episode, we dive into Jordan Peterson's "12 Rules for Life," focusing on Rule 8: "Tell the truth, or at least don't lie."

Through a personal story about an early high-performing employee whose overbearing nature was left unaddressed, I reveal how my reluctance to tackle hard conversations led to significant team disruptions and the loss of valuable members.

This experience was a wake-up call on the paramount importance of integrity and transparency in fostering a healthy work environment.

But the lesson doesn't stop at the office door.

We explore how honest communication is just as vital in personal relationships, helping to build stronger bonds with loved ones.

This episode is a reminder that our words shape our reality.

By embracing truthful communication, we not only nurture authenticity in our professional lives but also strengthen connections with spouses, children, and friends, paving the way for genuine growth and success.
